Camp Billings, Historic summer camp in West Fairlee and Thetford, Vermont.

Camp Billings extends across 10.8 acres on Lake Fairlee, featuring buildings in Bungalow/Craftsman and Adirondack Rustic architectural designs from the early 1900s.

The camp began in 1906 through a land grant from the Billings family of Woodstock, with Archibald Hurd serving as director for five decades.

Multiple generations of families have attended Camp Billings since the 1920s, creating a network of alumni spanning across North America and beyond.

The camp offers numerous activities including sailing, backpacking, boating, canoeing, windsurfing, swimming, tennis, arts, archery, waterskiing, and drama programs.

In recognition of its centennial in 2006, the Governor of Vermont declared June 16th as Camp Billings Day and listed it on the National Register.
